If a person wаѕ sitting, reclining, οr standing, whісh position wουld cause thе blood pressure tο bе highest аnd lowest?
Alѕο, іf thеrе wаѕ аn increase іn blood viscosity, cardiac ouput, аnd diameter οf thе arterioles wουld thіѕ constitute tο аn increase іn blood pressure аѕ well?
“Doctors generally agree that systolic readings of 120 to 140 and diastolic readings of 70 to 90 are normal. Slightly higher readings—140 to 159 and 90 to 94—are considered mild high blood pressure (mild hypertension). Readings from 160 to 179 and 94 to 114 indicate moderate hypertension. Anything above these limits is considered a honest problem.”

This clarifies blood viscosity:

it reads normal when u are really relaxed in a chair and the nurse takes it.
It may go up if u are stressed, just worked out, or just ate stout-back meats
blood pressure (BP) is usuall lowest standing position and highest in supine (reclining) position. This is because the blood return to the heart is decreased when standing.
standing position will bring the central pressure to the extremities, standing will reduce in pressure,and laying flat will level to the heart, inclined will increase intracranial pressure. yes specially arteries.
On sides::::low b/p
Sitting in chair:::::arm has to be at hearts level, if too high-low
bp,,, if too low, or lynching at your side=
high bp
Standing:::::::If the personnel bp hasnt had a opportunity to adjust for at least a minute, the bp can be low. Once it adjusts,depending on how well they’re hydrated, it can be hgih or low.
Lying on back with arm at side;;;;pretty consistant with sitting with arm at hearts level
